There's been some loose units in the AFL over the past week, so we thought that was a good time to revive our exploration of looser units from around the world. This week we looked at Long John Daly, surely the inspiration for Happy Gilmore.

It's amazing how quickly you can go from paying attention to the finals to paying attention to all the trade rumours as soon as your team is knocked out. But before we get too distracted with VFL, SANFL and NEAFL fiascoes, there's still AFL footy to play so we wrap up the Semi final weekend and look forward to the all important prelims coming.…

Well that's the home and away season done, now we get into the real stuff - trade rumours! And it looks like all the Christmas' have come at once for North Oh, and we talk a bit about the finals coming up too.

After the last 24 hours, we feel like everything that can be said about Gaff has been, and the tribunal result won't be known until tomorrow so in this episode we promise less than one minute of Andrew Gaff talk. You're welcome.

Another big round of footy, another big round of media running their mouths off. Should we trial more rules more often? Has Tomahawk launched himself into All Australian contention? And does Darcy Moore have a UFC future ahead of him? Listen up, it's round 19 in the books.

Upbeat episode this one, pretty happy with it. We look at who is next for North Melbourne to through big money at only to get rebuffed, why it's fun to now watch Melbourne lose instead of sad like it used to be, and do Collingwood actually have their best 22 right now despite injuries?

After the upbeat episode last week where all our teams one, predictably they all lost this week. And what an absolute horror week for injuries, continuing the theme for the season thus far. It may just be last man standing - but for now, let's look at what happened in round 17.

All three of our teams had a good week on the field, so expect a slightly more upbeat tempo from the team. We're looking at what match ups make the game interesting, can anyone stand up to the Tigers and why would you bother if you were a Carlton supporter?

What a great round of footy! put the pitchforks away you old bastards, the game isn't dead yet! We go through the round,controversial comments, and a preview of next week! This episode was recorded before the news of Cyril hanging up the boots.

This week we go through some fascinating results. Not all the footy was clean, but there was effort and entertainment to be had. We even mount a somewhat feeble character reference for Jeremy Cameron. And there's a run through for a ladder predictor to see who's playing finals this year according to us.…

If you're listening to our podcast, we assume you're ok with inappropriate comments. I don't mean "Port will be minor premiers" inappropriate, I mean comments that push the line of bad taste. So with that in mind, some of the comments in this episode are the most inappropriate we've ever made. I think that's great, and hopefully you do too. You ...…

In this episode we step through the Round 11 shenanigans which was by far dominated by tribunal issues, the diving, call backs to previous rounds and anything else to distract us from the fact that there was some pretty ordinary games going on. But there is a light at the end of the tunnel - round 12 looks like a cracker.…

We've got through 10 rounds and still marvel at the fact that Melbourne are a top 4 team and looking serious. Are Geelong just lazy or bored of watching Carlton struggle around the ground? And can you pick up a couple of broken Crouchs mid season? It's 50 odd minutes of footy talk, and that's all we can promise.…

Did you enjoy that round of footy? Wasn't too bad at all - we had Ronke going nuts, a Showdown that had two lead changes inside the last 100 seconds, Cunnington and Cotchin nearly getting as many touches as McCrae, and Essendon still suck.

Would you look at that, round 7 of the AFL is all done. GWS look like a rabble while Tommy Hawkins just wanted to shake hands. Sicily does his best for high fiving teammates and being a lovable scamp for a change. And Collingwood pretty much confirm the're the worst people ever by breaking Brisbane hearts.…

It was a round of footy, which is better than no round of footy, but probably only just. It was the type of round that makes you appreciate how good other rounds are. This was the Carlton of rounds of footy. Well, it wasn't that bad.

Had to record this one just before the ANZAC Day clash, so that result isn't included. We also may be having a few equipment issues, trying to figure out where the fault lies, hope to get that sorted soon.

Look - the footy wasn't great but come November we'll be missing weeks like this still. Anyway the injury toll from this round was really the only interesting and heartbreaking thing to happen on the weekend. Well, except for the smashing the hopes and dreams of Carlton/Gold Coast/Brisbane/Melbourne/Saints fans.…

Another round of footy down, and things get more bizarre. Imagine handballing in the goalsquare again, or failing to have your mate answer the phone when you're looking for a "Good Bloke" reference. It's enough to make your ear bleed.

Round one is in the history books, and we ask if Gold Coast of North could drown at Cairns, could the Bulldogs ave a 2 year premiership hangover and when will a West Australian team salute at their new home ground? Limited cricket talk promised.

It's the off season and lets face it, JLT isn't all that much to talk about. So instead we decided to have a look at a few loose units from sporting history. In this episode we have a look at two from the history of motorsport.

It's been a long time coming, but here we go wrapping up the fairytale that was Richmond's 2017 season. We're joined on this one by our metaphorical and literal punching bag in Ritchie, and it's a bumper one where we mention nearly every Life Member on the Richmond list.

Are Owen Six jokes old yet? I know I'm sick of them. Bit of fortunate timing on this one as we recorded a few hours after Tippet retired - will that hurt the Swannies or is it the one area they can cover?

After years of earning the reputation of being hard to deal with at the trade table, the Dons have pulled off one of the best targetted pre-seasons in recent memory. How will that have them sitting for 2018?

The list is bursting with talent and draft picks, but where's the flag? What's the missing link for the Giants? Clearly it's Lachie Tiziani - the next player to get offered $2m a year from North Melbourne.

A quick look back at season 2017 for the Eagles - and yes, that goal by Shoey - and prognosticating whats to come in 2018 once NikNat is back on deck. Will the new Perth Stadium help or hinder their home ground advantage?

It's time to take a look at what's ahead for the Mighty Fighting Hawks. Can they cover for the loss of Hodge, and how does Burgoyne continue to get better with age? And is Josh happy that Hartung is going to North or what? Listen up, and we only mention that Burton was robbed of the Rising Star once which is some level of achievement.…

We're looking back at the MILLION DOLLARS season that North Melbourne had. We go through their highs, their MILLION DOLLARS lows, and how the managed to still find senior players to delist. MILLION DOLLARS!

Just like Connor McGregor - the Bulldogs won their title but didn't show up to defend it. At the end of the day though, for a premiership hangover you've got to have the premiership first, and the Scraggers were happy with that. We go through their 2017 and what's in store for 2018.

Are Collingwood still the most hated side in the competition or are they also-rans? Is it now a race between Bucks and Eddie to see who the media want sacked first? And just why have they been so quiet this offseason - they miss Swanny that much? All this and more as we look at what Collingwood had to offer in 2017 and whats in front of them fo ...…

Looking to see what is in store for the Luke Hodge in 2018. And I guess the rest of the lions as well if we must. We're joined by a couple of special guests in Ricky from Sports Bezerk Harv from Harv time. See their work at https://www.facebook.com/sportsberzerk/ and http://harvtime.com.au/
